Watch as Chris Harris reviews the new 2012 BMW M5 and Nissan GT-R, in the rain on the street and on the track. While the two are totally different vehicles, designed for totally different purposes, it makes for excellent entertainment.

While according to Chris, the BMW M5 moves slightly into the Nissan GT-R’s territory, it cannot bully the road quite like the Nissan can. While the two are unlikely rivals, its fascinating to watch the two cars being flogged back-to-back on a damp circuit, demonstrating just how technologically sophisticated each one is and how they go about putting the power down so differently.

Watch Chris in action in the video below:
